Sensational effort to hold out Bentham's best efforts. Thought it'd get messy anyways with backing up from a double header weekend. Masi is a machine and disappointed he couldn't get over the line.

great win tonight, the pack in the 1st half outstanding, Thompson made me eat humble pie tonight, though all the lads stood up well and the binman was terrific, last 10 min we just switched of and maybe fatigue set in, think if it was closer it wouldn't have happened, thought the young kids of the bench really got stuck in as well,again well done lads, just seen the crowd though there was a tad more imo,

Didnt see much wrong with Bentham tonight
Whats your criticism?

The funny thing about Thomo is that some of his best games have been in the front row even though he is lightweight.
Just wonder whether the club could build up his upper body and add some weight without losing his pace then use him as an impact prop.

That blatant knock on for one of their tries that he never sent upstairs, Rawsthorne getting take out in the air, the Kelly knock on that never was, and a few other niggles when Wigan realised they weren't gonna win.

And, as per usual we saw a team warning given and then no penalties for fooking ages, like they don't want to commit to sending someone for ten. I've started to think team warnings do the warned team a huge favour.

Agreed thought he had a good game and let the game flow, we got most of the decisions first half when on a roll reserves 2nd half.

We got a few 50/50 as well.

Agree with your last point thought

2nd half the direction of the game swung in wigans favour. First try was from a forward pass, questionable offside for another, not going to the screen.

Puts Wigan on a team warning, they concede 2 penalties in the next 5 to 10 minutes. Shaul makes a break tries to play the ball, Wigan defender has a clear second pull at his leg, Bentham let it go, shortly after the team warning. 2 examples of him bottling it

3rd professional foul from stopping us play the ball quick when we made a break and rawsthorne been taken/slammed out in the air in the tackle

Someone from the Wigan dressing room at half time may have had a word or two I reckon which wouldn't be the first time Wigan have done that in a game

it'll probably not look as bad when I watch it back, but I really thought he was trying to manufacture a close result in the second half. Wigan were shiiite.

You would be correct, Bentham was awful in that second half , some disgraceful decisions
